Justice Inyang Ekwo, in a verdict, held that the June 26 primary of the party which produced Uba as its standard-bearer was not validly conducted.
George Moghalu, an aspirant in the APC primary election had challenged the process and the outcome of the primary election that produced Uba as the party’s candidate. Moghalu, who was the plaintiff, had sued the party, Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC and Uba as 1st to 3rd defendants respectively.
